Capitalism is a fight with no holds barred. The best man does not always win. Sometimes it is the craftiest, most underhanded fellow with the best poker face. Sadly, it is usually legal.
There’s a basic moral flaw in the idea that legal=right. Sometimes just because it’s legal, it still isn’t right. It’s kind of distressing so many people have lost the basic concept of right & wrong and seem to have lost any conscience at all. So, now laws have to be written and peple’s arms twisted to do the right thing. Sad, sad, sad.
Claud, this is where we are today. Laws to protect the American people maybe, finally will be enforced to create a society that does not depend on the subjugation of many to protect the wealth of the few.

deadhead, like your post, especially “… to create a society that does not depend on the subjugation of many to protect the wealth of the few.”
